Lessons Learned The Hard Way & Now Building Again my $HBD Savings - Ground Up with a Solid Plan...
Hey All,

![image.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmTZnaUwyvqUbewTNLdoAWPMwryF8bQ4hhTrMkerU8sW99/image.png)

I messed up real time by touching my 12K+ $HBD in Savings which was giving me sweet 20% APR. But what did I do with all the 12K+ $HBD? Simply put I bought different coin like $RUNE, $AVA, $WAXP, invested in Splinterlands license node, powered up some $HIVE and also invested in other blockchains like Cosmos, Akash Network etc.. and my bad that it didn't turn out to be a good decision to touch the $HBD in savings. Frankly speaking I thought of taking advantage during the Stock and Crypto Market crash during May 2022. And thought would buy back $HBD once I receive immediate gains. Speaking of gains nothing happened and the entire investment turned into losses and I could not get that 12K+ $HBD back to my savings.. This was the hardest lesson that I have learned in my entire crypto journey..don't ever touch your earnings which is giving you a decent return and 20% APR is not at all bad. I got greedy thinking to be rich fast enough and messed up entirely a good chunk of money earned...

### My Current $HBD Savings Status

![image.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmQAQNqY8TgqsrsVwzvE5Xf63UQz2Z11RXf1R3rvfEUW86/image.png)

See now I am back to square zero, with just 235+ $HBD in savings. But then this is not the end of the world. I am going to build again and this time not going to touch the $HBD savings account no matter what the financial or crypto market situation is. Crypto Investment has a Potential to Self Grow & investing in $HBD savings is one of the best ways to have your crypto investment grow exponentially. What are your thoughts on Crypto investment having the potential to self grow exponentially? I thought it would be wise to start building again and now HOLD onto the $HBD for a long term. 

### My $HBD Savings Accumulation Plan

|Month|$HBD Savings|Monthly|
|-|-|-|
|Jan|230|250|
|Feb|550|300|
|Mar|850|300|
|Arl|1150|300|
|May|1450|300|
|June|1750|300|
|July|2050|300|
|Aug|2350|300|
|Sep|2650|300|
|Oct|2950|300|
|Nov|3250|300|
|Dec|3550|300|
|**Total $HBD in Savings by 2023 - 3550+**|


With that in mind, I have draft a plan to get to a point of having at least 5K+ $HBD in saving by the end of this year. Adding 300 to $HBD in saving every month will bring my total to 3350+ $HBD and I will not reach my target of 5K+ $HBD. The plan is to have a stretch GOAL and leverage passive income resources to add up to the $HBD savings account as the opportunity strikes. And incase in between my investment in $RUNE and other blockchains associated crypto coins/tokens rises then I would be converting them  into $HBD as well. But definitely, I am targeting and determined to get at least $5k+ in $HBD savings by the end of this year, 2023... hoping for a brighter future ahead... crypto is the way out.. cheers

Same here, mine was 10k but I use everything to buy hive instead which is not bad as at this time. You will build it in no time

Now I regret withdrawing my HBD savings too.  I withdrew it to power up though. 

I've been trying to create a savings strategy but I have 2 problems.

1. I dont know how to do a projection. For example if I invested 100 bucks a month for 25 years in hbd savings and started with 1000 bucks how much would it yield me at the end? This is assuming the APR is constant.

2. The second problem is access to crypto.
Banks in my country restrict access to exchanges. 

I'd like some help with my first problem of how to make a projection please.

There is an annuity formula which is a geometric sum to help work this out.

The formula is as follows

FV = A * ([1+i]^n-1)/i

where;
FV = future Value
i = the interest rate
n = the number of periods
A = the payment amount each time

In your case the interest is claimable every month, so I would use
n= number of months
i = 0.2/12 (i.e. the monthly interest rate)

an example, if you pay $10 per month at an interest rate of 20% p.a. for 5 years.

n = 60 (5*12)
A = 10
i = 0.016666

plug this into the formula and you get

FV = 10*((1.0166)^60 -1)/0.0166
FV = 1017

which means $10 a month for 5 years you end up with $1017. but dont forget the purchasing power of the dollar will be weaker then because of inflation.

in your example

n = 300
i = 0.01666
A = 100

and we start with $1000

so future value = 100*((1.016)^300-1)/0.0166 + 1000*(1.0166)^300  [ the last part is to allow for the starting balance]

Future value = $990,050 (almost $1m) 

This shows the power of compounding!

Thanks a lot for the explanation.
So the interest is compounded monthly which is great!

It seems your plan went sideways.  It is 2023 and you haven't got to your planned $3,550 HBD in savings.  Things happen and money needs to be spent or have you lost so much confidence in the dollar,  you no longer think owning HBD and getting interest in it is a good idea?

I think it's good to have a savings plan in HBD to take advantage of the 20% it gives us; in the same way it is good to plan a growth in HP which gives 3% and also increases our weight in the Hive ecosystem.

For the rest, investing in some games or second-level Tokens as collateral can help.

What we accumulate is always good to keep where it is, after all it is rented out so it is certainly not stationary and 20% is not from any existing bank in the world... therefore, not too bad I would say!
